Please join me for this challenging ride including an optional extra up the Stwlan Dam climb (242m ascent over 2.3km at an average gradient of 10%). This ride includes the Crimea Pass and the Mignant hill climb. This is definitely a BIG test for the legs and hearts of any rider!
If you wish to complete the Stwland Dam hill climb you will need to sign up to both this ride and the Dambusters! optional extra ride which can be found here: https://www.letsride.co.uk/rides/dambusters-optional-extra-up-stwlan-dam
[A separate sign up is required as the Stwlan Dam hill cimb will be led by a qualified MTB leader as it is a closed road].
Mixture of some A-roads and narrow country lanes.
This ride is weather dependent. We won't ride if there are strong winds (20mph+) or it is pouring with rain.
This ride is 'no frills' as there is NO café stop. We will have some roadside stops to have a drink/snack (bring your own).
Ideal for Breeze riders who want to challenge themselves and have fun! And those who are new to Breeze rides are very welcome. This ride is classified as ‘challenging’ and we will be completing the ride at an average pace of approx. 20kph (12mph). Please be sure you are confident that you can keep to this pace before signing up. We ride up hills at our own pace and regroup at the top. We never leave anyone behind.
WHAT TO BRING:
A drink and snacks for the ride
Clothes suitable for the weather (bright / fluorescent clothes recommended)
A helmet
Repair kit and spare inner tube
Make sure your bike is in good working order with the tyres pumped up before arriving on the ride
Front and rear lights recommended
